iPads and Projectors
I've had several conversations with different teachers about different ways to connect their iPads to their projectors in their rooms (if they have a projector in their room).
A wired option is to use a VGA switch. Melanie Gray currently has this setup in her room. If you google VGA switch you'll find many options from many different places.
Another option to wirelessly mirror your iPad screen to your projector via AppleTV. This is certainly a more expensive option but being able to walk anywhere in your room with your iPad and showing what is on your iPad screen through your projector is certainly appealing. I've included two links to websites/blogs with information about how this can be achieved.
I will not guarantee in any way shape or form that the district will provide technical support for any of these options since they are not district initiatives but I believe we're beginning to see how we can support each other with the integration of technology in to our classrooms.
Happy Holidays!
